The Royal Society reports that AI could cut global emissions by up to 4%.

The Royal Society reports that AI could cut global emissions by up to 4%. In the UK, this means smarter energy grids, optimized supply chains, and energy-efficient buildings.

AI helps measure carbon. Startups like Sylvera use satellite data and machine learning to rate the quality of carbon offsets (like tree planting projects), ensuring that companies aren't just greenwashing.
